How to Make Aloha Hawaiian Granola
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 10x15 inch baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, brown sugar, wheat germ, shredded coconut, mixed nuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds. Mix well to distribute ingredients evenly.
- In a small saucepan, gently heat canola oil, honey, and vanilla extract over medium heat. Stir constantly until the honey is just bubbling and the mixture is warm.
- Pour the warm honey mixture over the oat mixture. Stir thoroughly to ensure all the oats are evenly coated.
- Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Try to make the layer as even as possible.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, stirring at least twice during baking, until the coconut is lightly browned and the granola is crispy. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
- Remove from the oven and immediately stir in the chopped dried pineapple pieces.
- Let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it into clusters. This helps it crisp up further.
- Once completely cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy!
